Well, no not really, but he did have the 'dad' attitude down.
In the commentaries for TTT, Fran, Peter and Phillipa joked that one of the reasons they didn't have Elrond's sons in the films is because they'd run out of beautiful New Zealand men they could cast.

Veterans Day Messages from Troops In Iraq, Filmed By Defense Dept., Feature Replica of Twin Towers
After months of studied ambiguity, President Bush finally admitted that Iraq had “nothing” to do with the attack on the World Trade Center. The Defense Department, however, appears determined to perpetuate the myth.
Today, the administration released veterans day messages from troops in Iraq. These “taped messages from the U.S. Defense Department” featured a replica of the twin towers in the background. Here’s a screen shot:

Bush and Blair discuss new policy for Iraq
Transatlantic phone call anticipates top level submissions to influential study group next week
The Observer
Tony Blair and beleaguered President George Bush have had a long discussion on how to push forward 'change' in the coalition's policy in Iraq.
In Friday's phone conversation, Blair, who will give evidence to the Bush-appointed Iraq Study Group on Tuesday, insisted on the need to regionalise the peace effort and draw Iran and Syria - which have been accused of supporting insurgents - into any solution.

Well, it wasn't just facial beauty, it was the physical type, and I think Cate did that well. But they needed tall and skinny/lithe, so most of the elf extras were college students. I think in this case shooting in NZ was a drawback, not enough population to draw from.

For college kids? Yup. But actually I dug the music, and the shirts and CDs were just gravy. I played a lot of Limbomaniacs and Blue Hearts, too. Drove them to the top of the alternative charts, actually--NHK (Japanese radio) interviewed my friend because we pretty much were responsible for all the Blue Hearts' airtime in the US and they wanted to know why a Japanese band was "so popular" in Maine.
The local radio announcer, broadcast the local high school's playoff game (my alma mater) said that the football huddle was invented in Muskegon in 1909. I did not know that and I am casting a jaded eye on this information.

Well, it wasn't just facial beauty, it was the physical type, and I think Cate did that well.
Yes she did. And I suppose that the whole point about the elves, especially the most noble among them, was that they had a preternatural beauty that was inherently inhuman. So it's pretty hard to cast humans that live up to that standard on the face of it, and therefore hard to fault Jackson for making compromises there.

chucks a well spoken voice of reason, at least that's what he sounds like but he is what's wrong with the Democratic party. He is republican light and no voice of change. His slimy comments and sucking up to faux spews only undermines the good works of this last election. And for the life of me I cannot understand Reid or his promised appointment to LIEberman. Maybe the senate needs a new democratic leader and maybe schumer and Emanual should get the boot.

This promised post might keep him on the Democratic side. Since the Democrats are such a mixed bunch, Pelosi will have to work hard to keep them in line. But Lieberman wandering over to vote with his Republican friends would make it 50/49 and that is too dangerous.

Pigboy, first, sorry about seeming so condescending earlier. I was trying to pull one of those Molly Ivins things.
The answer is, there are 49 Republicans and 49 Democrats in the new Senate, and the two independents, who are going to caucus with the Dems, which gives them control. Sanders is for all practical purposes a Dem, but Lieberman is of course well known to side with the GOP when it really counts (like cloture votes).

Joe is a wanker but he's not completly stupid. He saw the blue wind. There's nothing at all for him by siding with the GOP cause he's loose then the few democrats who voted for him. He also knows he would loose his comity seats the second he votes a different way than Harry Reid. Actually you can almost say that now he will be more predictable than before. He will have to walk the blue line or he's powerless.

PROVIDENCE, Rhode Island (AP) -- Two days after losing a bid for a second term, Sen. Lincoln Chafee said he was unsure whether he would remain a Republican.
Chafee lost to Democrat Sheldon Whitehouse in a race seen as a referendum on President Bush and the GOP. On Thursday, he was asked whether he would stick with the Republican Party or become an independent or Democrat.
"I haven't made any decisions. I just haven't even thought about where my place is," Chafee said at a news conference. When pressed on whether his comments indicated he might leave the GOP, he replied: "That's fair."
Chafee, 53, is a lifelong Republican who has represented Rhode Island for seven years. His father held the same seat for 23 years before that.
He is the most liberal Republican in the Senate and was the sole Senate Republican to vote against the war in Iraq. But that was not enough to prevail against Whitehouse, who shared many of Chafee's views but was a Democrat in a heavily Democratic state.

Cool. The other parties have managed to make a right mess of things.

He'd be an idiot to piss of Harry now, when he'll be completely irrelevant in two years.

Precisely. We have to deal with Holy Joe for two more years and then we can gleefully pitch him over the side. At that point, it may wll be time to replace Reid as well, but until then, I'd say he's as good a leader as any.

the other thing to remember about Joe is that, in 2000, he won re-election (lucky guy) with- what, 65-70%?

But auggy is his own true love. and we're not quite sure where augs falls on the gender spectrum.

Steve--since all the girls love you, it should work out just fine.
Dawkins says evolution is a theory of nonrandom selection of randomly varying genetic codes.
brick: the Mormons' dogma about North American indians being descended from a lost tribe of Israel is coming up against molecular genealogy. You make statements about God loving the world, loving your neighbor s yourself, like that, that's one thing, but you make dinosaur bones 3000 years old, or say Kennewick Man's grandmother got off a boat from the Fertile Crescent, well, you might just get embarrassed...
Alec is very good as Saddam "Borat has more hits than me"!

Now SNL is showing a winger's idea of irony, Baldwin as Saddam.
Alls I know, is that we just took the House in an ass-whuppin, and the Senate in a horse race.
Neither one was supposed to happen according to Karl Rove.
Flory--I don't think I want to explore auggy's gender issues...I'm not easily grossed out, but a girl has to draw the line somewhere.
K, a quick lesson for me because I tangled up Pelosi of the House and Reid of the Senate.

Well, some of them, like Sessions and Roberts, are probably irredeemable. Some others, Like Collins, Smith, Sununu, and Coleman, might feel a lot of pressure to break ranks. If Little George sticks to his guns for the next two years, the Republican party is going t be pretty small.

Dawkins says evolution is a theory of nonrandom selection of randomly varying genetic codes.
brick
It is the natural consequence of selective environmental pressure applied to a self-perpetuating stochastic process over deep time.
In the brodaer perspective, of course, the whole universe is a random process. It is the enthalpy of the sun that drives self-organizing behavior in the random soup of molecules on planet Earth and locally reduces the entropy level.

I submit that this is the most incredibly geeky comment on any blog ever.
1. The poster is bragging about how a Saturday Night Live sketch has cleverly satirized his political opposition.
2. The poster uses the abbreviation "SNL" in manner of hip individual.
3. The poster is using "Tore new one" expression in manner of tough person of stature of Chuck Norris or similar.
4. The poster has made up his original sexist term of abuse for the next Speaker of the House of Representatives. He seems to hope that this term of abuse will catch on and thus earn him a measure of Fame.
5. This person has numerological concept of Minister Farrakhan or similar.
6. Poster is acting malevolently in textual manner in Internet Blog Comments Section on Friday night.
The evidence, frankly, is overwhelming.

The Japanses General Staff and the German General Staff knew that once the United States became an enemy combatant, it was all over.
I donno about the German General Staff, but Admiral Yamamoto was certainly convinced that if Japan couldn't beat the US in the first six months then Japan was toast.

Hmmm, movie showed today about the Japanese attacks on Attu.
And, Alaska was a territory back then too. But.....
Part of the theme was "last time an occupying force landed on the US since 1812.
So...
In addition to attacking American ships (which is, as we know, tantamount to attacking the country) and invading a ton of American holdings (which is, as we know, tantamount to attacking the country) the Japanese did, in fact, attack the mainland of the United States. At least twice. Ineptly, true, but they were attacks. Once with a sub shooting at California, and once with balloons intended to start forest fires. There may be better examples, but it's getting late between my ears...

Anyone who does that to their cat for faddish reasons deserves to be left naked on an ice floe.
Gnight flory, sweet dreams.
Ok, I'll post it, but be warned, she's not a happy kitty.

Oh, my. That's one POed kittykat.
Did they build Battleships there?
Barry from Alaska
Pretty sure.
There were three big Naval Shipyards. Portsmouth, Newport News and Mare Island....
Sometimes, when we drive over the Hampton Roads bridge you can catch sight of a carrier or two in port.
These things have got to be the largest machines man has ever wrought.
Poor thing couldn't even sit down on a cold floor, she had to hold her butt up a bit.

Well, jeepers. Turn on the heat. You're in frickin' Alaska!!!!

One December back in the 90's I visited an old friend in Montreal, and he kept his house at 15C. (60F)
Even with a t-shirt, shirt, and sweater and long pants on, after several hours of heat loss, I started shivering so violently that I had to put on an outside coat. After some choice words in French, he gave in an put it up to 66F, which was tolerable with the sweater. My feet never did get warm on that trip. The crazy part of all this was that it was cheap - Hydro Quebec power.
cats can be so great. I like tigers. Mine, Tigger was about the coolest ever. Looked quite a bit like Jeffraham's Curly. Awesome, awesome cat, very intelligent, smarter than many Republicans, combined. Lord I miss that cat.
I've smoked joints in the driveway to that house in Dyess Johnny Cash is standing on the porch of.

Been edjicating myself with the Google. Do I have this right?
Senate:
VP, President Pro Tempore
Majority Leader, Minority Leader, Majority Whip, Minority Whip
In the House:
Speaker of the House,
Majority Leader, Majority Whip
Is there no Minority Leader or Whip in the House?

Dunno about Whip, but there's definitely a Minority Leader. That's what Nancy Pelosi was til Tuesday night.
And now I'm really outta here....

Well, it has been determined that I am old, so maybe the memory fails me, but I kinda think all the battleships were East Coast things.
Alway been the center of US big shipbuilding.

Bye Kiddo.
That would be Minority Leader Boehner, I believe

Yes, there is a Minority Leader in the House.
Fox, however, made up a title of "Minority Speaker".

There's always somebody older, or at least that's what I keep telling myself until Alzheimer's kicks in.

They would dock at the Hudson piers from time to time. Phenomenally big boats. Some of them are too big even for there. They might somehow make it up the Hudson if it were specially dredged, but the piers are not sized for the largest.

Thanks. I was sure I knew this stuff at one time but the organizational charts I've found are weirdly incomplete.
Any more like you at home, ellroon?
Submarine construction is definitely East Coast. Electric Boat in Connecticut, or Newport News Shipbuilding in Virginia. The contracts go nowhere else.
Being that you are hitched and all according to your most excellent and well written blog.

It seems we've had lots of shipyards over time.
Feingold says no.
"On Sunday, November 12th in Racine, I will hold my 1000th Listening Session with the people of Wisconsin. Before reaching that milestone, I want you to know that I've decided to continue my role as Wisconsin's Junior Senator in the U.S. Senate and not to seek the Democratic nomination for President in 2008."
I always thought the Majority Party got a Whip, the Minority got a riding crop.

I suppose that as long as one can look it up somewhere, one shouldn't need to learn it. However, if you've ever read Asimov's Foundation, you'd know how screwy that notion is.

I'm still sticking with my assertion that major ship construction is an East Coast thing.
All the Pacific yard you referenced are repair yards. Nothing to be sneezed at at all, but ....
Hell, our Alaska State Ferries get built on the East or Gulf coasts.
So Harry Reid is taking the place of Boehner who replaced Blunt who replaced DeLay.
Pelosi is taking the place of Hastert. Hastert is not running for Minority leader. Do we know who will?
(found new link, there are whips in the house.)

Have the Asimov books in one of my bookshelves. Have not been brave enough to start them. Do you recommend them? Isn't the Foundation is part of a trilogy?

Gotta write Reid in the right goddamned spot on my chart first.
Issac Asimov of one of the best scifi writers, although I base that on mostly his earlier short stories. The later more voluminous stuff I never really got into. Ray Bradbury is another singular scifi guy. There's a hndful of them. Heinlein is another, and Vonnegut.
Though I'm glad Rep. Boehner will be relegated to backbencher status.
I did *not* like the cut of his jib.
Nooo. Doh. I meant besides you. Do believe I did make that clear.
I think I'll write a book: Ellroon's Blenderized version of Congress: Senatouse of Represenators.

I just looked up "Green Grass and High Tides."
For some reason, I find this picture of The Outlaws funny--makes me think of those phallic "Bob" ads for Enzyte.
I will say, however, that at least one my teenage fantasies has not diminished. I still think a black Les Paul with white trim is the sexiest rock 'n' roll guitar.

Boehner looks like his jib is trailing in the water, his rudder pin is missing, his boom is snagged, and the scuppers are clogged.

What doesn't yourtube have?

The books are: Foundation [1951], Foundation and Empire [1952], Second Foundation [1953], Foundation's Edge [1982], Foundation and Earth [1986], Prelude to Foundation [1988 ], Forward the Foundation [1993]
Certainly read the first one--it's quick and simple. It's good stuff for the imagination. As you can see, Asimov took the thing a long way, as the story of what went on before and after got more complex. There were tie-ins to his robot novels and books referred to as the "Empire" series.
I don't read much science fiction--watch it, yes, but not reading. I can say that I've read all the above books and enjoyed them thoroughly.

O'Brian writes as if he has actually controlled ships in the early 1800s, and describes them in great detail. You get the sense of the ship sitting in the water, how she handles with certain types of guns or sails, different weights of cargo, how she shifts in the wind with different sails up or down...
It's like someone who tells you about how they drove their manual stick shift car to San Diego in heavy traffic...with the cops looking for him.

What's next? Lycra?
chucks a well spoken voice of reason, at least that's what he sounds like but he is what's wrong with the Democratic party. He is republican light and no voice of change. His slimy comments and sucking up to faux spews only undermines the good works of this last election. And for the life of me I cannot understand Reid or his promised appointment to LIEberman. Maybe the senate needs a new democratic leader and maybe schumer and Emanual should get the boot.

Thanks, I will. I have read some other Sci Fi, I've gone through the Dune series and Bradbury of course, but was confused by the fuss over the Hitchhiker's Guide. Think I read it too late or something, it felt very dated.
I will take on Asimov next.
